Mother's Don't Get Sick Days

I've been a bit under the weather today. Some sort of stomach bug. So, needless to say I haven't done much of anything but lie around. It's kind of hard to be sick when you have a 3-year old who still needs so much attention (mainly to keep her out of trouble!). Thankfully, my husband, Blake was around most of the day and he was a HUGE help. He took on alot of my responsibilities today and allowed me to actually rest a little bit and take a semi-sick day. My 10 year old, Matthew, and 5 year old, Mackenzie ride the bus home from school so I didn't have to get out and get them. Blake has gone to pick up our oldest, Mariah and get me some medicine. God really knew what he was doing when He gave me this man. Blake always knows just what I need and is always ready to help out when necessary.

So, thankfully, the old saying that moms don't get sick days didn't really apply to me today. I was able to get some rest and do what I needed to take care of myself. Hopefully, I'll be up and around again in a day or two and will be able to take care of my family again. Until then, I'll just rest and be thankful for my wonderful husband. I know I tend to take him for granted sometimes but not today. I'll be sure and tell him how much I appreciate him.
